“…Many studies introduce the Tsukuba Science Park as a typical Japanese top-down dirigiste model of technology development; but, surprisingly, few (in English) provide an in-depth analysis (Li et al, 2011;Park, 2000). Park (2000) describes the state-led development process for Tsukuba but lacks industrial spin-offs and synergistic effects as well as a labor supply.…”

“…Park (2000) describes the state-led development process for Tsukuba but lacks industrial spin-offs and synergistic effects as well as a labor supply. Li et al (2011) characterize Tsukuba as a state-led model of an innovative city with a bureaucratic and innovative culture. A number of studies examine Japan's Technopolis programs as a vehicle for creating high-tech industrial cities outside urban areas in the 1980s but evaluate them unfavorably because the programs generally failed to revive declining or stagnant regions and facilitate innovation.…”

This study examines how the Daedeok Science and Technology (S&T) Park, built as a national R&D center, has evolved over time from the perspective of a complex adaptive system. We argue that the Daedeok S&T Park-a planned park exhibiting pathdependent, self-reinforcing trajectories led by the government-has gradually evolved over time, undergoing some tension between nationalizing and regionalizing forces instead of encountering an imminent and radical transformation through the replication of a new model each time. The state's role is highlighted as a creator that ironically leads to the process of the planned park's evolution toward a more cluster-based park by strengthening regional actors' capabilities and changing the structure of governance. The study contributes to the literature on S&T parks by providing an in-depth analysis of an S&T park from an evolutionary perspective, and not from a typical static evaluation, and is based on archival analyses and case studies of ten firms as well as on in-depth interviews with key actors.
